1) The article states that the program of the "Union of Liberation"
is set forth "deliberately not in the form of precise formulation of specific demands, but in the form of a literary, approximate description of them". Works,
vol. VII, p. 345.)
Inde — hence.
2) Euphemism — the conscious substitution of certain words for others,
embellishment.
3) Kommt spater — comes later.
4) The article analyzes the concept "realpolitik," which Struve employs. (Works, vol. VII, pp. 340 and 345.)
5) The program of the "Union of Liberation" was printed in the newspaper "News"
April 18 (5), 1905 and in "Liberation" no. 69—70, of May 20 (7), 1905.
6) "The Union of Liberation finds that the grave crisis, both external and internal,
which Russia is now experiencing, has become so acute that the people must take
the resolution of this crisis into its own hands, together with other social groups
that have come out against the existing regime". (Works, vol. VII, p. 342.)
7) From the words "Rental right" and ending with "State insurance"
are not used in the article.
All the enumerated points are taken from the program of the "Union of Liberation".
8) The expressions cited are quotations from the program of the "Union of Liberation". Vladimir Ilyich accompanies them in the article with these words:
"This caveat makes it perfectly clear that in the name of mercantile ('realpolitik') politics, members of the 'Union of Liberation' will renounce a great many
of their democratic demands"... "their program is a simple request, one that reckons in advance with the inevitable 'markdown,' depending on the 'firmness' of one side or the other in the conflict". (Works, vol. VII, p. 345.)
9) Vladimir Ilyich cites Struve's reasoning that the program of the "Union of Liberation" is "more than sufficient for a party whose aims are realpolitik". (Ibid.)
